Inter
school debate competition
“Don't raise your voice, improve your argument”
Mahesh
Abeywickrama was a beloved brother, an undergraduate of our university and
especially an initial member of our club. He was elected as the president of
our club 2004/2005. But unfortunately he leaved us in unexpected manner and as
a club we always memorize him. This project initially started to commemorate
our beloved character.
Event begins with the arrival of Leo Kaneel Maddumage and other dignitaries of the Leo district 306A2. We decided it is good to have religious activities before the commencement of the event. Chief incumbent of the temple situated near university, Sri Wijayarama temple done the religious activities. Then the starting ceremony began with the lightning of oil lamp by the dignitaries present at the occasion.
